XX [From the introduction] In the year 1540, Francisco Vasquez de Coronado came up from Mexico with some 350 Spanish soldiers and crossed southeastern Arizona to Zuñi, a pueblo 30 miles west of El Morro. Breaking up into several groups, they went eastward 70 miles to Acoma Pueblo and thence to the Rio Grande. At least one of the groups probably passed El Morro enroute. The first known historical mention of El Morro is found in the journal of Diego Pérez de Luxán, chronicler of the Espejo expedition of 1583. Luxán stopped here for water on March 11 of that year. For some 300 years, hundreds of Spanish soldiers and priests, enroute between Santa Fe and Zuñi, and the Hopi villages farther north, passed El Morro. Many left names and notations about themselves carved into the soft sandstone. After 1849, American soldiers, emigrants, freighters, and adventurers camped here because of the never-failing waterhole. In 1906, El Morro was set aside as a National Monument and additional name carving was prohibited. The name "El Morro" simply means "the headland" or "the bluff," and refers to the appearance of this mesa-point from a distance.…

However, by the late 1670s the entire Salinas District, as the Spanish had named it, was depopulated of both Indian and Spaniard. What remains today are austere yet beautiful reminders of this earliest contact between Pueblo Indians and Spanish Colonials: the ruins of three mission churches, at Quarai, Abó, and Gran Quivira, and the partially excavated pueblo of Las Humanas or, as it is known today, the Gran Quivira pueblo."

Royal octavo, turquoise cloth (hardcover), leather spine label, gilt lettering, ix, 197 pp. Near Fine, with light foxing (age darkened spotting). Illustrated with plates. From Foreword: In his Recent Discoveries of Ancient Man, Sir Arthur Keith wrote: "The Way form the Old World to the New was open to Pleistocene Man if he cared to take it. He almost certainly did take it, and his fossil remains will yet be found in America." For many years the question of the inhabitation of America by man in very early times was under discussion, and often great acrimony was engendered by the contending sides; but in the end it was found that the evidences presented in favor of the existence of man in the New World in very ancient times were not substantial enough to be convincing, so the question rested until other indications came forward, were investigated, and in turn were relegated to the anthropological refuse-heap. It should be said that the more conservative students -- those who regarded the assertions of the presence of early American man as not beyond question -- did not aver that America could not have been inhabited by primitive people many thousands of years ago, but that no substantial evidence of such early presence had been adduced. Finally, however, the discovery of a number of beautifully chipped stone projectile points of unique form in immediate association with the deeply-buried fossilized remains of an extinct species of bison near Folsom, New Mexico, seemed to afford testimony strong enough to convince the most skeptical, for after the finding of the first of these artifacts the investigation was conducted by trained scientists the results of whose meticulously careful work could not be questioned. The researches at Folsom by Professor Barnum Brown, of the American Museum of Natural History in New York, were followed not long after by those of Mr. M. r. Harrington of the the Southwest Museum, whose long experience in archeological research in various parts of the United States and in Cuba equipped him with an exceptionally broad knowledge of archeological problems and their solution.
